This Session is creating a "home" for traditional blues and roots music with a strict "no pedals" policy/philosophy to keep it raw, and true to the original music.

The Falcon's highly encouraged DONATION policy will be in effect. Please be generous to our living working musicians! SUPPORT LIVING ARTISTS!

Jeremy Baum - Hammond Organ
Chris Vitarello - Guitar/Vocals
Manuel Quintana - Drums
Both traditional and trailblazing...Highly recommended.
***Blues Review Magazine
Baum's playing has a deep funk to it, with a big influence of Jimmy Smith. And Baum also brings in all kinds of other things as well - dissonant jazz, alternative rock, R&B. He's not too far off from what John Medeski does with MMW, but with more of a blues streak to it.
***Jim TragaserCheck out these videos!

“Dylan Doyle is a great young musician with the soul of an old blues man." – John Platania (Van Morrison's Guitarist)

In the words of Bill Payne upon sharing the stage, “Music is a conversation. Dylan spoke beautifully and was listening to the musicians around him. His play was imaginative and original.”

SPECIAL GUEST: Singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist,Steve Dedman, is the leader of the band Plywood Cowboy. His music is "a compelling balance between smart lyrics and dynamically tasty sound” (Grammy-nominated producer, Ira Sakolsky).

Music aficionado Stephen Clair is renowned in Beacon NY as the driving force behind concerts of all sizes, and is the founder of the Beacon Music Factory, which teaches music to as many adults as it does kids.

These endeavors hardly stand in the way of Clair’s own music-making. His current 5-piece band adds significant spice to Clair’s catalog, and lifts the songs—new and old - to the rafters. Expect a new album this Spring.

The band celebrates Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, David Bowie, Pearl Jam, and of course Led Zeppelin.

Frank Corrado has been teaching music and performing for 40 years in a style that pulls from influences as varied as Mozart to The Beatles.

Named ‘Best Group/Duo’ in the 2014 International Acoustic Music Awards, acoustic-duo Ryanhood got their first break more than a decade ago as street-performers at Boston’s Quincy Market. It was there that they were spotted by a college booking agent and thrust into the college touring scene, where Campus Activities Magazine would name them “one of the most requested acts by college buyers all across the country.” They’ve since gone on to perform more than 800 shows in 45 U.S. states over the past decade and have shared stages with Jason Mraz, Matt Nathanson, Train, and many more.

Their sixth and newest album, Yearbook, was recorded over the past year and half in bedrooms, living rooms, hotel rooms, and green rooms across the country. Led by their signature two-part vocal harmonies, and decorated with flares of guitar, ukulele, and mandolin, Yearbook centers on songs about being young, growing old, and making peace with the passing of time.
